That's how a lot devs got into the biz years ago. Hell, I'm guessing half of Valve were from the modding community. They gave jobs to all CS devs, TF devs and a few SP mod devs.

I wonder now. What if Paul Haddad, if he came back, could pull off RE2 Leon like Alyson Court can with Claire still? That'd be awesome.

Kazenji

Seen that about the voice actors

seems Capcom are going with voice actor's that aren't part of a union.

Zack Fair

RE2 is one of the first games I played on PSX and it is still my favorite RE game. I been wanting a remake ever since the first REmake. So I am excited. Hope they can keep the atmosphere. No overly action oriented gp plz.

Nemesis X

Well it was banking on the success of REmake's HD rerelease so it better keep the atmosphere.

Nemesis X

Courtney Taylor's in the same boat and won't be voicing Ada Wong in this: https://twitter.com/courtenaytaylor/status/877682124123291648

Unless Capcom is bringing back Ada Wong's original VA, Sally Cahill, these are some dark times.

Ridley_Prime

The original VA apparently voiced her in not only RE2, but RE4 and Darkside Chronicles as well. Kinda forgot about that but hope she's brought back in which case, but still sucks hard about the union VA's.

I don't really care about the VA unless it is replaced with incredibly shitty ass RE1esque VA.

Just give me good graphics, atmosphere and gameplay. GG EZ.

Ridley_Prime

As long as whatever new VA's can sound similar enough to their predecessors with the character they're voicing, I'm fine with such replacements (unfortunate as the thing with the union VA's is), but sometimes they can miss the mark. Chris's new VA in Vendetta for example, wasn't bad, but it definitely didn't feel the same or sound much like post-RE1 Chris to me.

cdtm

The old ropes looking a little moldy.

They really are out of ideas, aren't they. Won't buy, I'll just pull out my PSX disc. ( Armored Core, not RE2. Could never go back to that game now )

Ridley_Prime

An RE2 remake has been requested for years after the good makeover RE1 got. It's more to do with that than them simply running out of ideas. If an RE3 remake ever got requested enough and eventually made too (i.e. the last game before RE got modernized and actionfied with RE4), fans would rejoice that too.

Armored Core was at its peak for me during the PS2; didn't get to play the series much after that...

Yes. RE2 remake has been asked for ever since the original got remade for GC. I'm glad they finally decided to do it. Even if its just an obvious cash grab and an attempt to revitalize the series.

The ones I played on PS2 were very fun, if not the most critically acclaimed (Armored Core 2 and Silent Line)

But I'll always have fond memoies of Project Phantasma, the game that blew me away with it's little arena. Even if I had to exploit the low ceiling cave level to keep the final challengers from hopping all over the place and making me nausous panning up and down constantly.

Kazenji

For me Armored core lost its way when it concentrated on Arena matches when it came to the PS2 era. I did get Armored Core: Nexus at the time and that brought it back....even Armored Core: Verdict Day for PS3

Lol I probably lost count. I remember being shocked when Hunk showed up though.

I remember my RE2 game case came with an advertisement for a part in an upcoming Resident Evil movie. This was back when rumors of Leonardo Dicaprio playing Leon were still floating around.

RE2 was the first game I ever played on playstation. The 2nd game was Tomb Raider 2.

We've got some new rumors from relyonhorror who claims they got all this info from their own source. Take it all with a grain of salt. All of this sounds great IMO except for the OTS camera (wtf).

A lot of it has been backed by Dusk Golem who's a pretty well known data miner (I've come across his posts on various websites multiple times and he's always come across as the honest sort). Still, it's safer to take it all as rumors until we see more.

I'll buy it no matter what, but the main reason it bugs me is that it confirms we likely wont ever get a fixed camera angle RE ever again. If they didn't want to bring it back for RE2, it's officially a thing of the past. I like the OTS camera too (RE4 is my all time favorite game), but nostalgia had me hoping for fixed.

Still, I'm excited to experience a new take on Raccoon City, so it'll be great. Hopefully through, OTS stylized means like RE 3.5 Fog version.

EDIT: Also, Dusk Golem is apparently a verified and famous RE Insider.

cdtm

Could never S rank that, no matter what.

Anyone remember a door with an electronic lock or something? Never used during the regular campaign..

There were a couple of electronically locked doors. Can you be more specific?

StyleTime

Speaking of S rank speedruns...I remember unlocking the gatling gun required you to beat the game, I can't remember which scenario, without saving. I got like 70% done and the power cut out in my house due to a random thunderstorm.

Felt miserable.

It had a few different colors to it, I think.

Or maybe a password. I forget.

Nemesis X

Heard some glass shatter and looked around to see what broke. It was my heart. No fixed camera angles smh

Well as long as the OTS camera doesn't make you OP when fighting the zombies. I hope since this is set around the time they were rookies, aiming becomes a bit difficult like a shaky reticle or no reticle at all otherwise they're gonna have to make our iconic slow moving T-Virus zombies adapt in some absurd way.

cdtm

They need to make fast zombies.

If they behave like the original, that WOULD be OP.

Nemesis X

Exactly which is why I hope Capcom does something clever and handicap the aiming in a way. I don't want fast zombies in this. Unless every single one of them conveniently transform into Crimson Heads, they need to stay slow.

cdtm

Frank West it?

Really limited ammo, a LOT of zombies everywhere, all the time, and making melee the primary thing.

-Pr-

I don't mind if the zombies are easy; dogs, lickers and that bastard in the b-game will be hard enough.

Hmm, not sure. I recall doors requiring that a card be swiped in each game, or needing chess pieces to open, but bar that not sure.

Were there any optional doors you didn't need to unlock to complete a scenario?

Or any that were meant for the Hunk or Tofu games?

Well Claire at the time was a biker so I can definitely see that working.

Arachnid1

IDK I don't think I'd like an OTS RE with melee as the primary focus. My knife only runs in 4 and 5 we fun to mix things up, but not something I'd like for a first playthrough of a main game. Just stick to limited ammo so they work more as a fallback option.

Slow zombies would be hard to pull off but they could make up for it with numbers, insane damage soak, limited ammo, and a focus on tight/enclosed areas. The molded in RE7 were done well, for example, despite being an FPS (I still hated them design-wise though, lazy).

That was fking phenomenal. Thank god RE delivered.

Nemesis X

Here's the second trailer that shows a bit of the gameplay.

XyPW9_95poU

It's definitely OTS. Also it looks like my suspicion was correct and there's not gonna be an aiming reticle. I actually like that.

Part of me still can't believe this is happening. Two years ago Capcom said it's happening but they were quiet for so long after, hope here was dwindling. So happy to finally see another REmake.

Nemesis X

Guess we should've seen this style of gameplay happen. If you go back to the first page of this thread, you'll find at the bottom a post I made two years ago about a dev group that was making a fan project of RE2 that Capcom shut down but took those guys in discussing their work. This is that very same fan project but backed with a AAA budget. Those guys must've had a heart attack their version became the official one. Congratulations are in order.

FinalAnswer

It being OTS is pretty disappointing, was hoping more for something along the lines of REmake, but it looks like they'll be completely redesigning the layout of the game and its contents, so hopefully they'll be able to pull off a more horror feel, rather then just feeling like RE6.

It is disappointing but if they can pull off a first person game like RE7 and still keep it scary, I'm sure they won't screw up an OTS RE2.

Would be nice though if in some future RE spin-off, the fixed camera and tank controls made a comeback. At the very least they could try something like that.

KCJ506

TBH, I'm fine with OTS as long as they don't make it seem more like Call Of Duty.

That's my worry too. OTS is fine, but RE2, even as action packed as it was, was still one of the more "horrory" games in the series. I hope they maintain that.

The gameplay looks tight. I like it.

Looks good. Did not know that RE 2 is the highest selling of the series. It's one of my favs.

DrGfx-AbZb0

I seriously hope there's an option to remove the crosshair when you aim. For a game like this, I want nothing to help with the aiming so it adds to the horror.

It looks good enough for me to be at least hopeful, if they're going to go the route of a reimagining, I want them to take full advantage of that.

I hope other developers learn from Capcom on how to remake classics. I have no problem taking an older game and essentially renovating it to fix gameplay styles of the present. I'm really looking forward to this with gameplay from RE4 and up.

I hope they do all the games like this...but I can understand why the original RE was only remastered. I wonder if this game will change enemy encounters based on how different the movement controls are.

Looking forward to this.

I believe I read somewhere that it would be X and Pro enhanced. Could be wrong, though. I'd be surprised if it didn't take advantage of those consoles, though, seeing as RE7 did.

I don't think RE7 was 4K though...I think it was just HDR...which is just as important in my opinion.

On the PS4 Pro I'm pretty sure it had a resolution bump. Maybe it never got one on the X because the X came out after the game was released?

Apparently not only is Capcom gonna keep everything that was in the original Resident Evil 2 but they're even gonna bring back cut content that didn't make it in the final phase of the 1998 classic like the outfits we saw Claire and Ada wearing in the trailer, even the hat on Mr. X. Who knows, we might even get new enemies and areas but don't expect Elza Walker to be a canon character. She's actually a skin for Claire you can only get by buying the Deluxe Edition. Lame.

That sounds cool for the most part. One thing I'm hoping to see is more weapons, and to see what Claire's various grenade rounds look like too. If a shotgun can do such detailed damage, imagine what the flame or acid rounds look like.

And the flame thrower too.

ArtificialGlory

I like what I'm seeing so far. And it's coming to PC which I'm very grateful for.

As for the zombies: they weren't a challenging foe in the original nor are they supposed to be. They're more of a nuisance and something to get you to waste your ammo.

Nemesis X

According to all the sites I found detailing the Deluxe Edition (priced $70), it will include 2-3 alternate outfits each for Leon & Claire, Samurai Edge handguns that belonged to Chris and Jill, and a feature that lets you swap out the remake's soundtrack in favor of the original track from classic RE2. Thought I'd let someone here know in case they were curious about it.

Personally, I'm not happy Capcom would lock such enthralling retro music like RE's out of the standard edition like that. Pretty rude.

Damn. Most of that stuff doesn't interest me, but the soundtrack? RE2's was amazing.

Adam Grimes

That's what I was thinking. For instance, when you first enter the RPD the music hits you right on making 50% of the scene, the other half being the sights of a majestic but empty place that was Leon's last hope up to that moment, filling you with uncertainty.

In the remake, by what I've seen so far, music takes a backseat to GRAPHICS!11

Nemesis X

Unless Capcom hired the composers behind this forbidding piece, the music should be the only thing left untouched. Locking it behind any edition above standard is a dick move.

Smasandian

I assume they would remaster it or record new versions.......

If they remastered the original tracks, I'd be down for that.

As mentioned, ya win some and ya lose some with Capcom. /shrug

Definitely feel more intent in getting this ASAP compared to RE7, in any case. Not that 7 was bad, but as an RE it kinda felt too foreign, whereas a modern reimagining of the experience of Raccoon City will automatically have me more invested.

Arachnid1

I'm actually really excited for the new score. It's by the same composer so I'm sure he'll approach this with the same care, if he doesn't outright remaster the scores.

The Resident Evil story has always been a bit messed up.

It's nothing to outrageous and it's nice to have something to tie the game ups together but a cohesive story was never in the plans for the series.

When it comes down to Resident Evil games...it's always gameplay and story for the game.

Leon is the worst character in the franchise and the lowest tier fighter in it.

IDK, but am fine that RE6 (as dumb actiony as it was) had Leon and Chris stalemate in a H2H fight, kinda putting the versus topic that had been going on between them for years to rest.

Maybe he'll be a more fleshed out joke scenario in this one.

You all are banned from the thread for not unlocking HUNK. He is the star of RE2.

We can work something out if you at least unlocked his mode in Umbrella Chronicles. Maybe like a probationary thing.

Tofu's scenario is there strictly as a challenge mode. Quite possibly the hardest mode ever in any Resident Evil game. Iirc, he was originally used so the devs could do collision detection and such. They decided to leave it in as a parody of HUNK.

I tried it a few times, but never came close to clearing. Crazy that a few people do Rank S No Damage Speedruns through it...

Might I recommend something? Turn off the hud to get rid of that crosshair. The game feels so much more different that way and for the better to those wanting something close to that old school RE experience.

It's also important to note btw that the knife will fall apart after you swipe enough times at those zombies with it and you gotta find a new one so careful how much you use them.

Kazenji

Lol..at the hard mode details it's basically the way the old games were.

Great score, but they also gave Umbrella Corp a 36 and FF13 a 39 so they tend to be shit sometimes.

Anyway, I just figured it was worth posting since it's the first released review. Cant wait to see how this does when the embargo drops. I'm hoping this is one of the most successful REs so Capcom continues the style. I've been wanting a truly AAA horror oriented OTS RE since RE4.
